Post E3 2011

Now that E3 is now over, which of the three major companies do you believe had the best showing: Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft?

[CircusHead]

Though Sony did have a great showing with the PSVita, I'm gonna have to say Nintendo great games for the 3DS and the Wii-U sure is innovative. Microsoft had some cool games, but the showing itself was lackluster.

Sony and the PSVita made a great appearance, but Nintendo was even better. More in-depth details about the 3DS and its games were revealed, and WiiU definitely got my attention. To be able to switch from your console to a controller? I'd buy that any day. And Super Smash Bros? It's such a popular series, it's hard for anyone not to get excited. All in all, Nintendo won that show hands-down.

Nintendo, of course. They brought down the house with the Wii U.

To me, Sony stole the show with their Vita.
Nintendo was a giant disappointment for me.

Say what? If you don't mind me asking, why was Nintendo a disappointment for you?

I think neither three had won tbh. For me it had been EA + Dice with Battlefield 3!

The Wii U was a major disappointment.

The Wii U was a major disappointment.

How so? Please elaborate.

How so? Please elaborate.

Nintendo showed us a bunch of trailers of games that are going to come to Wii U. All of which, save for those of 1st party games, were either trailers of the PS3 or 360 version of that respective game. How very representative. We got no conclusive information on the system, a lot of promises and a mildly interesting controller. The new tech is great and all, but this is what the Wii should have been five years ago. If you've got a PS3, 360 or a capable PC already I don't see a reason to purchase a Wii U for anything else than the 1st party content.
